LANTERN-SUPPORT.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 14, 1912.
Application filed March 18, 1912. Serial No. 684,375.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES BURKE, a citi zen of the United States, and a resident oi Ellsworth, in the county of Nobles and State of Minnesota, have invented a new andImproved Lantern-Support, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to a lantern support more particularly adapted for holding a well-known form of lantern resiliently positioned on a vehicle or other movable body.
An object of my invention is to provide a simplified form of holder containing relatively few parts that might get out of order, and to simplify the cumbersome constructions now used for this purpose.
I attain the above-outlined objects by constructing a bracket of an inverted U-shape, the legs of the U having slots therein to accommodate the oppositely-disposed air pipes of a lantern, the lantern being resiliently supported in the frame on a flat spring bridge or suspended from the crotch of the frame by means of tension springs, the entire device being preferably mounted on the vehicle by means of a swinging hinge connection.
Reference'is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both the figures, and in whioh- Figure 1 is a transverse sectional view taken through a preferred embodiment of my invention, and on the line 22 of Fig. 2, and Fig. 2 is a side elevation looking at the left-hand side of the device shown in Fi 1.
l described more in detail, the frame A within which is positioned the lantern B, comprises a substantially U-shaped member 3 having a flat top or crotch 4c, the sides of which may be integral with the crotch part, or, as shown in Fig. 1, may be of separate members suitably fastened to the crotch member by means of rivets 5. Each of the sides 6 has extending vertically therethrough, an elongated slot 7, within which slots may be positioned the air pipes 8, shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1, which pipes are common to the forms of lanterns now in general use. It is to be understood that the sides 6 may be sprung out of their normal position, permitting the pipes 8 to be inserted in the slots 7. The sides 6 are held together and the lantern supported, by means of a bridge plate 8, suitably and preferably removably pivoted at 9 to one of the sides 6, the opposite end of which bridge plate is removably attached to the opposite side 6 by means of a cotter pin connection 10.
In order to resiliently mount the lantern in the bridge plate 8, a relatively broad fiat spring plate 11 is fastened, intermediate its length, by means of a rivet 12, to the center of said plate. If desired, a pair of tension springs 13 may be used in place of the spring 11 or in co-action with said spring. These tension springs 13 have one end suitably atfixed to the flat crotch 4c, and their opposite end bent into a hook 14 adapted to removably engage the top of the air pipes 8 or any other suitable portion of the lantern.
The frame hereinbefore described may be mounted on the vehicle in any approved manner, and, as shown in Fig. 1, a portion of the crotch member 1 is bent outwardly from the frame A, to form a bracket arm 15 terminating in a depending pivot pin offset from the adjacent side 6, which pin may engage the bracket on the vehicle or other supporting body, to form a hinge connection permitting the lantern and its support to swing in a horizontal plane.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
1. A lantern frame, comprising a substan tially U-shaped member, the sides of which may be sprung outward away from each other, each leg having a longitudinally-disposed slot therein adapted to receive parts of a lantern disposed between said sides, a bridge piece pivoted to the free end of one of said sides and removably fastened to the end of the other side, and a flat spring plate supported by said bridge piece and adapted to resiliently support the lantern.
2. A lantern frame, comprising a substantially U-shapedmember, the sides of which may be sprung outward away from each other, each leg having a longitudinally-disposed slot therein adapted to receive parts of a lantern disposed between said sides, a bridge piece pivoted to the free end of one of said sides and removably fastened to the end of the other side, a fiat spring plate supported by said bridge piece and adapted to resiliently support the lantern, and a ten sion spring between said sides supported from the crotch of said U-shaped member, adapted to engage the lantern.
3. A lantern frame, comprising a substantially U-shaped member, the sides of which may be sprung outward away from each other, each leg having a longitudinally-disposed slot therein adapted to receive parts of a lantern disposed between said sides, a bridge piece pivoted to the free end of one of said sides and removably fastened to the end of the other side, a flat spring plate supported by said bridge piece and adapted to resiliently support the lantern, a tension name to this specification in the presence of 20 two subscribing witnesses.
